Did my nasal valve collapse? 1 year post op, considering a revision (photos)

Asked By:ad17rpq in England, United Kingdom

Hi, I’m looking for some help. I got a rhinoplasty done about a year ago and as time has passed the end result looks very asymmetrical at the nostrils and the tip. I have never had this issue before the nose job but I did have a boxy tip that my surgeon corrected for. After research, it looks similar to nasal valve collapse pics I am seeing online. Is this the case? I am seeing my surgeon in a month and considering a revision.

Answer: If you're breathing well through your nose, you may consider a permanent non-surgical nose job.

Hello! Thank you for your question. As far as I can see from your photos it may take 1 - 1.5 years for the nose to take its full shape depending on the skin structure, but you have a droopy nose tip, so I recommend you a revision surgery, but it would be better to be examined by your surgeon...

Do I need a rhinoplasty or can it be only rasped? (photo)

Yes, if the hump on your nose is small, it might be possible to rasp it down under local anesthesia without a full rhinoplasty, depending on whether it's made of bone or cartilage. This can usually be done with minimal surgery. It's important to consult with a plastic surgeon who can examine...
